Car Body #433


As of April 21, 2025, this is the information we have about this car:

[Feb.01.2017] Car #433 was recently acquired [2002] by Quentin Hall, an enthusiast in Brisbane, Australia. Quentin's car has the Bendix power-brake package installed (power brakes became available on the 1954 model year Cadillacs and the factory subsequently offered a Power Brake Package, 1950 through 1953, part #146 2266, $73.90. It is described in the Cadillac Master Parts List as a "Complete installation package". Gita and I saw "Q"s car when we visited the Hall's in March2005. The car came from Canada. How it got to Australia is a story I hope that"Q" will relate one day. Restoration is well under way. If it turns out half as nice as the '59 Biarritz that "Q" restored previously, then it will be a beaut!
